Mine would be a Superlight 30/30, .357 or .35 Rem that weighed 5 1/2 lbs with BC stock and an FP peep sight.

kitchawan kid · « **Reply #7 on:** March 14, 2009, 02:48:03 AM »

All the old time calibres on a B.C frame and wood.

Ditto on the 257BOB but also a .32 or .36 Muzzleloader would be cool. Kurt

Something bigger...

..Why bother with a .50 BMG. When you can go whole hog and buy a Gravel shaker:

[yt=425,350]<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/T_ClWi27olA&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/T_ClWi27olA&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>[/yt]

.260 Remington would be a hard to resist pick too, I'd definitely require surgical treatment to fight the urge to buy one.

SM Bob · « **Reply #18 on:** March 14, 2009, 04:33:26 PM »

8mm Mauser, 7.5 Swiss, & 7.62X54R

How about a .73 caliber, that will launch a hard cast 730 grain bullet at 1500fps, blow a 4 inch tapered hole in any LARGE animal about 30" deep that you can stick a baseball bat in backwards and all for $100-$125?

Building one of my "dreams" right now, it will be done in a few days, sp1(former 12ga.) 357 mag, 18" trapper saddle ring carbine with barrel mounted peep sight, I learned long ago, never wait for a manufacturer to make the gun you want, do it yourself and enjoy it! Life is too short to spend time begging manufacturers that couldn't care less what real people want.

uhhh..............can you do one for me in 44mag!

My dream Handi would be any that the factory turned out that had a chamber that was cut the way it is supposed to be.
I am getting tired of short-long throted 45-70s, entra long 45 colts & 357s.
I have severial that are fine and a few that are way off.

Don't get me wrong, a 45 colt that will shoot 454s or a 357 that will take max is fine indeed, but I just wish they would do it right from the begining.

I would like a stainless with a bull barrel .260 or 6.5mm-06 with a synthetic or laminated thumbhole stock no barrel sights.

You should do one yourself, as I learned long ago...it really isn't rocket science

All you need is the desire, minimal tools and a bit of common sense.
I think when it's finished I might build it a big brother in 44 special, I love special and have far too many 44 mags already.

When I was 11 years old I fell in love with the H&R Topper. Now I have a handi rifle! Mine has a laminated stock right now but I'm considering a synthetic. It came as a 25-06 but I'm working on my dream. So far I have 25-06, 270, 243 std, 243 Super lite, 223, 20 guage smooth bore, and 410 barrels. Next will be 20 guage rifled slug and muzzel loading barrels. I'm also considering a 450 Marlin or 35 Whellen. Then a custom case for all and another when I want to carry just a couple barrels and the frame. One gun can do it all.

Badnews Bob · « **Reply #28 on:** March 15, 2009, 06:48:10 AM »

There is no way ever in this world I would pull the the trigger on a .50 BMG handi rifle. I like my shoulder where it is right now thank you.

It would be kinda fun to watch tyke light one off, With an ambulance and EMT crew on site.
